NCT00085709
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and daunorubicin, work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing and die. Monoclonal antibodies, such as gemtuzumab ozogamicin, can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Combining chemotherapy with gemtuzumab ozogamicin may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known whether induction therapy using cytarabine and daunorubicin is more effective with or without gemtuzumab ozogamicin or whether postconsolidation therapy using gemtuzumab ozogamicin is more effective than no additional therapy in treating de novo (first occurrence) acute myeloid leukemia. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is comparing two different regimens of chemotherapy and monoclonal antibody therapy to see how well they work in treating patients with previously untreated de novo acute myeloid leukemia.
NCT01582958
This project proposes to test the hypothesis that osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) given to patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) enrolled in a 12-week pulmonary rehabilitation program (PRP) will result in improved respiratory pump function over and above that seen in sham and control groups. Specifically, we will study the effects of three OMT techniques: (a) thoracic inlet indirect myofascial release; (b) rib raising with continued stretch of the paraspinal muscle to the L2 level; and (c) cervical paraspinal muscle stretch with suboccipital muscle release. The key clinical readouts will include: spirometry, P100 (and index of diaphragm and inspiratory muscle efficiency), maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximum expiratory pressure (MEP), as well as laser evaluation of chest wall excursion. Supplementing these objective parameters will be several more subjective clinical outcome measures: exercise tolerance (6-minute walk test), dyspnea (shortness of breath questionnaire), and quality of life questionnaire. Finally, an attempt will be made to correlate biochemical alterations that may shed light on the biological mechanism underlying the OMT procedures.
NCT01424696
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a life-shortening disease that causes breathing and digestive problems, but can now be diagnosed at the time of birth. Lung function is very hard to measure in infants, but growth is not. In this study the investigators aim to define growth in infants with CF in the first year of life with research quality precision and to understand factors that interfere with good growth. Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) will be also be studied in a subgroup of infants. Two different doses of PERT will be evaluated for improving fat and nitrogen absorption in infants with CF.
NCT01012895
The purpose of this study is to determine whether BMS-650032 and BMS-790052 in combination alone, together with Ribavirin, or together with Interferon and Ribavirin are effective in the treatment of Hepatitis C in patients who have not responded to prior therapy.
NCT00660179
The AC-055-302/SERAPHIN study will be an event-driven Phase III study, comparing two different doses of macitentan (ACT-064992) (3 and 10 mg) vs placebo in patients with symptomatic PAH. The main study objective is to demonstrate that macitentan (ACT-064992) prolongs time to the first morbidity or mortality event, and to evaluate the benefit/risk profile of macitentan (ACT-064992) in the treatment of patients with symptomatic PAH.
NCT01493557
This is a prospective and open label study that aims to enroll approximately 1200 patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) not previously treated with Pradaxa® and free of gastrointestinal symptoms (GIS) for at least 2 weeks prior to enrolment. Approximately 125 sites in North America will be recruited. Patients who report GIS during the 3 month treatment period will be randomized to one of two management strategies, and data documenting the intensity and duration of the GIS will be collected.
NCT01369095
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of study drug (BMS-820836) as compared with continued Duloxetine/Escitalopram in the treatment of patients with treatment resistant depression (TRD).
NCT01071265
Main Research Questions: 1. Is a large trial of patients undergoing heart surgery comparing a simple procedure of temporarily stopping blood flow to the leg with a blood pressure cuff (called remote ischemic preconditioning) to a sham procedure possible? 2. Does the remote ischemic preconditioning procedure before heart surgery help protect the heart and kidneys? What is Being Studied: A simple procedure known as remote ischemic preconditioning. The procedure is performed by inflating a pressurized cuff the thigh to temporarily stop blood flow to the arm or leg. This procedure causes the body to have a stress response that, at the cellular level, may protect major organs like the heart and kidney from the damage caused to them by the much larger stress of cardiac surgery. Reducing this damage may improve patient's recovery after surgery and help them live longer. Why is this study important?: This research is important because up to 1 in every 20 patients that undergo heart surgery die before even leaving hospital. Preventing heart and kidney damage at the time of surgery with remote ischemic preconditioning may reduce patient deaths.
NCT00633789
The purpose of this study is to determine if gastric/esophageal, lung, pancreatic, bladder and sarcoma patients show benefit from brivanib treatment. Patients who clearly do, stay on treatment. Those in which it is unclear will be randomized to continue or withdraw treatment to determine whether that benefit is related to brivanib
NCT01573351
